I do my poo picking everyday because that works the best for me, it usually takes me about fifteen minutes. Although sometimes I get a bit fed up with it, most of the time I find it quite satisfying and I find it a great time to think. I am on my own and it is quiet so I tend to review my day, the lessons I have taught and how I can improve them. I then plan my lessons for the next day and even plan new projects. It is valuable time for me and even when I am fed up with it I think I would miss it. It is strange to think you would miss picking up poo?!

that the other lazy owner who horse i turn out and bring in with mine everyday would occassionally take out just 1 wheelbarrow, ofcourse i know this will never happen. but it makes me work that bit harder just thinking about it, lol
 
How much I hate it.

Why is it always in the mud.

Does he look lame?

Has he had too much grass?

Bar Steward! The leccy fence is on!!


Or I am completely off in my own world and not thinking about anything :D
 
I contemplate the pending zombie apocalypse, and how well placed we are to defend ourselves against the oncoming hordes. I plan the attacks, defences, escape routes, the whole lot.
 
generally keep an eye on the fencing (does the electric tape need tensioning, is the post and rail all in strong working order)
keep an eye on weed
check waters
cast an eye to check everyone upright, rugs straight, fly masks on, all 4 boots still in place etc

generally have at least 1 if not 2 or 3 cats walk round with me so talk to them like a derranged idiot.
 
I've never really thought about what I think about ............ will have to make a mental note next time!
 
usually thinking about avoiding the fat cob who likes to help when he can but is more of a hinderence

also muse over whats for tea as usually have tea when i have been to yard

oh and always wonder where it all flippin comes from ;)
 
If only Harry potter were real and we could have wheelbarrows that's self empty.

Or if we could just flick a wand and all the poo carry up to the muck heap and what would happen if the annoying livery crossed paths with said flying poo.....


Oh and what jodphur boots should I go and buy
 
I take my phone with me and listen to whatever Audible title I currently have going . . . do this when I'm mucking out too. Current listen is David Attenborough's Life on Air.

How much more can I realistically cram onto the wheelbarrow?

When I'm not listening to my audio book - THIS. I HATE not clearing the field but there is that critical point when the wheelbarrow (particularly mine which is rather deep) becomes too heavy/unwieldy to push through the two fields and up the drive to the muck wagon.

Why does there have to be so much ragwort?
How did it get here when I pulled it all up yesterday?
Why do they always have to break at least one strand of fence, every day?
And, just occasionally, how did that horse get there? He/she was three fields away just now...
 
I don't poo pick, but if I did, I would think about moving to a house on the ocean front, preferably in South America and no bloody horses messing up the back yard ;)

Haha I've never done this while poo picking, but I do actually do this...how I would get out of my village, where would be the best place defensively, food supplies etc. I think I've watched far too much The Walking Dead!

I do thins when not poo-picking I have an awesome Zombie plan and a bit sword :P My general thoughts when poo-picking are usually too random and incoherent or how best to escape unscathed whilst the terrible twosome (yearlings) gang up on me which usually involves and athletic leap and commando roll under the fence or a pole vault using the fork.

Love TWD. Have you seen In The Flesh? If not, catch up with it quick on iplayer - you can still get series 1. Really really good stuff, and I'm now on series 2 which is rather scary.
 
I don`t think of much because I don`t have to poo-pick, I have a couple of strapping young lads who do it for me .... :p ... heh heh heh
